Decorated Navy SEAL John Schmidt reportedly appeared in 29 porn films in the last seven years. The military is investigating.

The military is investigating a decorated Navy SEAL for his alleged side gig as a porn star.

While Navy Chief Special Warfare Officer Joseph John Schmidt III has spent the last 23 years in the military nabbing a score of accolades and honors — including a valor citation for combat overseas — he’s also allegedly managed to carve out time to moonlight as an adult actor working under the name "Jay Vroom," the San Diego-Union Tribune reported.

The Coronado-based Naval Special Warfare Command confirmed to the newspaper that they’d launched an investigation, adding that a commissioned officer has been assigned to the case.

The investigation kicked off a mere eight months ahead of Schmidt’s planned retirement, and disciplinary action could affect both his rank and pension benefits.

In the last seven years, Schmidt allegedly starred in 29 porn films, most of them alongside his wife and the mother of children, Jewels Jade. He’s also reportedly worked with other porn actresses including Mena Li and Ashden Wells, Jade confirmed to the Tribune.

Should the allegations prove true, the 42-year-old could face discipline for violating rules that require approval from a commanding officer before taking on outside work.

Navy officials said Schmidt didn’t fill out the appropriate paperwork or seek clearance with his supervisors, but his wife of 15 years said the majority of SEALS her husband works with have long known about both of their work in the adult film industry.

Jade told the Tribune she was even invited to the Coronado campus to sign autographs after she was named Penthouse Pet of the month in 2011.

She said she first started appearing in porn in 2001 but shifted her focus toward being a wife and a mother. The couple in 2005 then set up a real estate company in Virginia only to struggle with financial losses for the next two years.

Schimdt’s $60,000 salary couldn’t cover the $1.8 million debt and the family was forced to for bankruptcy.

Jade started to strip for money and, eventually overwhelmed by the massive debt, returned to porn.

“It helped our family. It got us out of a lot of financial issues we were going through,” Jade told the Tribune. “I could take care of the children. I could try to get us out of financial debt.”

Still struggling to make end’s meet, she enlisted her husband’s help to cut costs in paying actors.

Even if Schmidt had filed his request to work outside the SEALs, it’s likely it would have gotten denied as the Navy — like many military branches — forbid activities that “prejudice good order and discipline or that is service discrediting,” risk potential “press or public relations coverage” or “create an improper appearance.”

Naval Special Warfare Command did not immediately return a request for comment.
